GLBL YOGA

We received an email the other day and thought we'd pass it along.  We shortened it a bit.  It sounded cool and we we went to their website we watched a video that explained more and was really interesting and saw some cool pics (see above) from their previous event.  Basically the 2010 event was the largest yoga gathering and apparently the biggest crowd-funded event in history.  So, pretty cool.  Here's what Sascha Lewis had to say:

Greetings friends.

 

GLBL YOGA's mission is create large-scale, crowd funded yoga events around the world.  We begin back at the Great Lawn in NYC on August 16th with a simply amazing array of teachers and artists including Elena Brower, Rodney Yee, Colleen Saidman, Seane Corn, Reggie Watts, DJ Drez and Questlove.  I am humbled to be co-creating with such kick-ass talent. There are forces at work here beyond the will power of the GLBL YOGA team (which is massive!) -- we've already had Richard Branson, Russell Simmons, Donna Karan, Adrian Grenier, Naomi Watts, Christy Turlington and Deepak Chopra all appear in the video for the project -- and we've only just begun. 

 

Inspired by people like yourself who believe we the people can change the world, we are "crowd-funding" this monumental happening.  This is where all you come in.  Contribute what you can and be a part of making history while getting some sweet gear, free yoga classes and maybe even some VIP tickets to the event.

 

Let's show the world what we can do, united in movement!

 

Onward & upward,

Sascha
